Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Received an email from Highspot recruiter reg. backend role in Hyderabad. Has anyone heard about the company..? All I could gather from blind is they recently laid off US teams and are now hiring in Canada and India, and the culture seems to go downhill in the last two years in the US at least. Any idea on how it's going to be in India..? I'm a L60 at Microsoft, with a possible move to L61 next week. Thinking of switching as i want to work in something relatively new from ground up rather than maintaining/migrating existing legacy systems.

Recently, seeing Splunk hiring aggressively in India post 7% workforce layoffs in the US and Cisco merger. Is it a good time to join Splunk India ?

Don’t think there are any Software folks there, linkedin shows none. I am only worried about the very high US dependency and the on-call given there are no or very few folks there.

Splunk India

I arranged employee referrals from Microsoft , Visa , Arcesium , Walmart but no response came not even rejection its almost 1 month.
Is there any other trend prevailing in market?
Or more precisely Am I approaching in the wrong way?

It seems employee referrals are not working these days

It’s pretty well known that Microsoft referrals are useless

Welcome to Confessions's Private Community

I am SDE backend with 6 yoe (Java, spring boot, python, flask) currently working with org in Pune with annual package of 32 LPA I want to switch to higher package  but couldn't find many options in Pune or remote India already applied to many companies on linkdin but no luck from past few months also work in current org isn't much exciting. I see many threads about jobs here but mostly are in Bangalore and Hyderabad not sure I am the only one or anybody else feeling this issue.

Hi, currently working in Infosys (3+YOE) thinking to move to HCL.  Want to understand how is HCL ? Work  life balance? Stability? How is the management and  also want to know how much percent of variable pay I can get  which is mentioned in ctc(12 LPA). And lastly should I work here or just continue with Infy for sometime and try to switch to product or startup. 


Thank you.

What are some good companies to switch from Microsoft in Hyderabad?

Switch job

I am looking for companies which can potentially sponsor US relocation from India (or through Europe maybe?).

Tbh, I had joined Uber in the hope that I would get a transfer but I don't see that happening now given the company dynamics has changed. So, I am looking for a switch asap.

Have seen people taking transfers through Rubrik. Is it still the case? What about other mid to large size companies? Or Any startup?

Companies sponsoring US relocation from India

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I have been working at an Indian Unicorn for more than 2 years now. At a decent positon. Would want to make a career switch but overall culture, sentiment and work pressure in most Indian startups are downhill lately. Any suggestions for the switch?

U.S. based companies in India which have good work culture are hiring currently?

Program Manager

Hi,

I am planning to join Microsoft India next month as a SWE 2 (L61/L62) and I am pretty excited about it. I have aspirations and dreams to moving to US (I know its not that amazing and India is great but I wanna go due to family).
I know if you are lucky and spend enough time in a company, such as Amazon, you may get that chance. I used to work at Amazon IN but I was laid off cause JWO.

Can someone working at Microsoft India, make this move in lets say 2-3 years or more if they perform well, keep their manager informed about these plans and lurk for opportunities.

I very well know that the answer may be a big NO but I thought to just ask for opinions.

Thanks in Adv

DoorDash Interview: Tips Needed

I am seeing a lot of layoff related posts everywhere from news articles to LinkedIn.. Is the Job market really that bad now? Or just the media is projecting that way? 

If it's really bad, which department you think is the most affected? How's layoffs specifically in India? Or is it layoffs in US but more hiring in India due to cost cutting? 

Are layoffs in technology/engineering dept as in for developers or some other departments? Your thoughts please..

Job Market right now in India?

It is really bad right now 
 1. Layoffs in many of the companies, irrespective of whether they're a startup or a big MnC. 
 2. Almost everyone I know of wants to switch, because of no/less appraisals from last 2 years 
 3. Bad work life balance - people thinks switching might help 
 4. Too much competition for any open position. Because of too much supply, companies are low-balling and people would accept the offer.  
  
 Recruiters ghosting is too common. Even if you've killed in your interviews and recruiters get someone who's ready to join on less pay, they'll simply ghost you.

People who were affected just got emails. Orgs include Search, Cloud, Ads , Assistant,  Pixel, etc. Engg is affected

Big layoffs at Google!

Last I saw someone post that his Google Interview has started.  
  
 Guess, FAANG are showing their fangs.  
  
 Apple laid off subcontractors and not employees from what I read.

Research Engineer

Hi guys,
I joined Epam 8 months back as Senior Software Engineer and working for amazon client.
But now got offer from Kotak mahindra bank as SDE 2 but hike is only 10%.

So should I join kotak or not and what about culture and work in kotak.

#engineering #software #swe  #epam #amazon #sde #sde2 #kotak #kotakmahindrabank

Should I join Kotak Mahindra Bank as SDE 2 ?

I was wondering if Hyderabad has Director level opportunities for people with 10+ years of experience and with a premier MBA. 

My preliminary research shows few opportunities at Microsoft, Amazon, etc. 

CTC is 40+ lpa

Team Manager Opportunities in Hyderabad for Senior Folks

Consultant

Rumor mill is fired up since a week and all meetings with senior leadership this week have been removed from calendars without any notice! Also noticed that several leaders are WFH today. Guessing that is to avoid nervous conversations and to engage in private meetings over phone calls to decide which heads they are going to chop off. 
The 🔔are going off! Prepare yourselves!

Folks, need your help in knowing how is the culture at Rippling for,

Work Culture
- WLB
- Mutual Respect
- Office timings
- Your Peers with whom you will work
- Perks and Benefits

Product Culture
- Are PMs responsible for Product Discovery or just do Project Management for Engineers 
- Are PMs given Ownership to make a decision impacting business
- India PMs value to their counterpart US Managers 
- Learning culture for PMs

I know though I have asked many questions, but would appreciate honest answers on this and accordingly will like to take my judgement for their offer in Bangalore office for Product Lead Role.

I went through glassdoor, ambition box and others and only found poor reviews for them but couldn’t find reviews specific to product so your experience sharing these details would help.

Folks - have been out for 15 years and with 20 years of experience, getting around 170-200K USD, looking to move back to India, core cloud technologist and data /AI SME, how much is the trend now a days

Back to India Salary

Data Architect

If we look at layoff trends in India, then late stage IPO headed startups are doing it to boost profitability, or mid to early stage ones where they're trying to fit into a viable biz model. some mid sized MNCs also did layoffs where they have seen hit to their books.. all in all, crux was similar - to boost efficiency and eliminate redundancy.
Then comes the companies with their support teams in india or US/EU banks and their ops outsourced in India.. i mean if you got friends in these firms you would understand how chillax they're about this.

Take the example of AmEx...there's so much slack in the company, got few friends there and all of them don't work more 4 hours a day and that too most of the work some excel and next to shit level of python/sql while their salary in almost 90-95% of avg market (similar to what top paying startups).. Along with that teams are operating at 150% of strength so wlb is heaven there. story is similar with folks in similar US based support ops in india (citi, jp morgan, mastercard, some service based orgs etc)

but look the irony of overall market.. you should be efficient and scared about your job as long you're into startups and Indian firms but once you make it captive or offshore centres of these US based firms.. you're life is chill, relax, no bad wlb, practically no layoffs. so you won't find these folks scrambling across GV or fishbowl or like that and getting stressed about seeing how other folks feel when one of the closer startups decided to restructure 

(i am frustrated because i once let go a offer of top US fintech company to go for a startup and now all i have is regrets given how the events across startup ecosystem are folding like layoffs across Fk, swiggy etc.. and not only layoffs but in general WLB and culture has taken a huge huge hit ::///// ) well it is what it is i guess then :,)

Looking for high tech IC role in Mumbai

Guys a friend working there told me Kotak Bank is going to cut approx 20 percent of the workforce across all departments. They have already started revoking offer letters. Also they will not be giving increments and bonuses. Tough times ahead. Anyone bearing things from established companies.
